which cost $4,000. 1t is the most i'm
posing home In the country, although
the new part is behind and wholly sub
servient to the old house in which the
President lived. This still remains the
head and front of the Garfield home,
although remodeled to conform with
the addition. A 100000 addition to a
$1,000 house is curiosity in modern
architecture, but sentiment for the
past and its illustrious dead inspired
it. There are probably sixty rooms in
both now and old houses. They are
all furnished in modern style and with
considerable elegance, and there is an
air of aristocracy about the interior
which Garfield did not know in his own
home. Although the house is far in
the country it has all the conveniences
of city home-in plumbing, gas-fit-
ting and steam-heating.
A natural gas well has been bored on
the farm, and the yard is kept lighted
day and night. The main entrance is
through the old house. In the hall
facing the door is "Grandman Gar

husband brought home just sixty years

Australian papers just received announce
the award of the National Gold Medal to
AUITMAN, MILLER & Co., OF Akron, o., for
their Light Draft Buckeye Folding Binder,
as the result of the National field trial held
in December last. The following, cut from
the Melbourne Argas of December 49, 1885,
giving particulars of the contest, will be OF
interest The Argus says:
The field trial OF reapers and binders in
connection with the National Show at
Shepparton was held on Tuesday, the l4th
inst, on Mr. Guthrie's farm, about two
miles from Shepparton Owing to the
pressure of harvest work, crops in all di-
rections being ripe, the attendance of farm
ers did not exceed l60 but great interest
was taken in the proceedings. AS at the
late show, the judges placed the Hornsby
machine first, NJ Cormick second and the
Woods third; the Buckeye" representa-
tive disliked being left out in the cold and
demanded field trial as provided by the
rules, the Mccormick also sharing in tho
protest; so the prizes were held over pend-
Ing the field trial. The crop was ripe
wheat. and the land was SO rough that
cutting, and the lolting over the hard clods
was tolerably severe on horses, ma, hines
and drivers. Two o'clock was the hour fixed
for the trial, but as the Buckeye" was the
only machine then ready, delay was
caused by the Hornsby and Mccormick
experts giving their machines q pre-
liminary run in the adjoining block of crop,
and start was not made until quarter
past three The five judges gave great at.
tention to their duties, and were ably see
onded by the subcommittee, appointed by
the society and the secretary, Mr. Harold
B. TURNKEY. About two acres were allotted
to each machine, and they finished in
the following order: Buckeye" hour 10
minutes; Hornsby, l hour 10 minutes;
Mccormick, | hour 26 minutes. The two
latter machines were drawn by three
horses each, while two lighter horses
worked the buckeye" binder with equal
ease The decision of the judges was based
on the following scale of points:

Chicago Men Meet-A Proposal That

 Eighteen Shelf. men received appoint ments on the senior appointment list.
 Chicago men met la evening and formed a Chicago club. Efforts will be made to es- tablish it on firm basis, and 8 code of laws will soon be drawn up.
 A petition has been handed in to the Shelf. faculty by the members who are try ing for positions on the sophomore, asking that the hours of recitation be so changed that they can row with the other candidates. Several articles have appeared in the Yale News of late asking that the winter games be held either at the armory or the rink, and furthermore, that they be held in the eve ming. Either plan would be good one and would certainly prove successful in fnan- cial way, as many would attend who are un. able to attend under the present regime.
 No class for years has shown such S hy- ness of the heliotype album as the pres ent class of 'S7. Only twelve men have thus far signed the list which requires fifty be- fore the album is guaranteed.
 The programme for the Y. N c. A. con- vention has been made out and is very good one. Among the many speakers will be the following: President Dwight, MT. Albert B. Monroe, the donor of the building, Dr. Barbour, Rev. A. F. Behrends of Brooklyn, Prof. Harper, J. T. Swift 's4, Mr. Puddefoot, L. D. Wishard of Princeton, s. K.
